Awesome!


Yeah. Now he just needs a name and a role to play (What he's gonna do).



I have a idea for when he pops up in the game. He will be in World 2 Breakdown Town. The level before the boss level is blocked because only a VIP can enter.. The Frog NPC is the VIP and he will sneak you in


I like that idea. As far as personality goes, his is loosely based on mine and Dennis from the TY the Tasmanian Tiger series. Kind and helpful, but somewhat cocky and snooty at times. He also thinks he's cool, because he is. smilie

Major Update Announcement

http://i.imgur.com/9BXD9JK.jpg
Feeling in the dark about the progress? Well let me shine some light about the latest news!


So, for those of you following my game, I've come up with new ideas and concept art.

As for ideas, there will not be a Game Over/ Too Bad screen when you lose all health. To bring the game up to current generation standards, instead it will be like Shovel Knight, but also different. When you lose all health, you will revert to a puddle while a counter appears subtracting the amount of notes you've collected. Once that is done, you will re-form. This allows you to continue where you left off, with no frustrations. If you fell into a pit, no worries, you would simply respawn.

Haha, this looks pretty cool!
I really like the cartoony style you're going with too. :P
I don't know if you've mentioned it earlier in the topic buuut what's the main story of the game?

Also, if you need help with anything to do with art for the game, PM me with what you want and I may be able to do something. ^^
Here's my dA if you want to see examples of things I can do. :)

#121 Posted: 03:09:34 26/05/2016 | Topic Creator
Your art is good by the way!
So, the main story so far is:
The evil panda Nukpana is stealing Power Crystals, draining the land of it's magic, while establishing an empire. The main character (my avatar) has to reclaim the scattered Power Crystals and restore the land to it's former glory, and stop Nukpana from overtaking the land. There are plenty of collectables to collect, and a backstory for the main villain. I don't think a villain like Bowser or Ripto has ever had a backstory, so that's a first. ( Shoot I need to PM skylandersspyro, these last few months have been so hectic for me. I'll do that next week) Anyways, I also want to make the game look as if it is hand drawn and have paintery-esqe backgrounds- like skyward sword had. It's quite ambitious, I know that. But I'll do what it takes, however long it takes.
Bolt Hunter Gems: 6135
#122 Posted: 20:16:10 26/05/2016
That sounds like an interesting story, and I love how you've decided to include Nukpana's backstory. Like you said, I don't think it's been done properly in a game like this before. ^^
But also the idea for the game sounds great, really digging the style you want to go with. The game will look so cool if the painterly style works well! c:

I'm two NPCs in the game, but yeah. Someone else can be the Ghost NPC, if it has a voice. Also, what are the names of the frog and gator NPCs, speaking of which? Just wondering a little.

What I intend to is present it it in a hand drawn aesthetic.

Similar to how Skyward Sword had characters styled in the impressionist style, while the backgrounds were in the renaissance painting style. The technology is there. I want my game to have it's own flavor.

Right now I have a placeholder model in blender.

Ting Toons Resort

[User Posted Image]

The Hub

I'm particularly inspired by Yooka-Laylee's Toybox Demo, and Lobodestroyo's Dev Island.

I'm working on Ting Toons Resort, the relaxing island HUB demonstration and the Demo that darkSpyro and later Kickstarter can use to get the feel of my game down. Only one level can be activated that playtesters can play in. It's sort of a proof of concept, and to get the feel for my game.

Blitz the Frog

[User Posted Image]

Friend and motivator to Token, and also friends with a "nightmarish penguin". He bribes you with a Power Crystal, but you need to complete a mission of his.

Portal

[User Posted Image]

A circular portal. They will be scattered throughout the HUB World, (and also the Pre-Alpha) and require a certain amount of Power Crystals to enter, and otherwise spit out. I think the idea of jumping into a portal a fun concept, via Backflip, Wall Jump and other means.

So let me know what you think of the concepts I'm working into the Pre-Alpha, and feel free to lend ideas of your own, and critique to better improve the pre-alpha for the best experience possible.

This?
[User Posted Image]

I can say for sure, that it is somewhat intentional. I want to use subtle references, and callback to the PS era of 3D Platformer collect-a-thons. You'll also notice that the main villain Nukpana's brother looks strikingly similar to Moneybags, and that is also intentional. But it is important for this game to go in it's own direction and carve it's own identity, providing a unique experience. I'd also like people to know it's influences though.

My most hated poster/cover art trope is massive characters in the background/sky/clouds behind the rest, but not actually there, like they're just a hologram.

Now that he mentioned that trope, the poster could do with a bit of revising. I'm sure you'll come up with something else for it.
